Perfect Shorts for Travel!! Velcro and Zippered pockets to keep your goods from falling out, or being picked. Lite weight & comfortable. The partial elastic band keeps a good fit, if your weight fluctuates like mine. They don't hang over the knee, like most college boys wear, which are horrible for climbing. I do treks, and active vacations, sometimes hiking for eight days, and will drop a couple inches and up to fifteen pounds from the start of my trip to the end. With these Shorts & the Ultimate Khaki with the Invisible Flex waist, you can go with a smaller size to start & be comfortable. I normally wear a 32" waist during down time, and wish I could find both in 30" waist. I have 1 pair 30" that fit fine always and a couple 32" that I settled for that get kind of loose on a trip. The shorts used to be offered in four colors, now just two, and not in stock at all. Please get stock, people travel year round and live in the south, why would you not offer the smaller sizes and have stock year round.

This purchase probably represents at least a dozen pair of these Hiker Cargo Shorts that I have bought in the last 5 years. I like the fit but wish that some more attractive colors were available. The "green" color is not attractive at all and only goes well with stuff you wear on St. Patrick's day. My biggest complaint is that they are made of rather thin cotton and the rear pocket that carries my billfold will wear through in a very short time. Though the new snap front closure seems secure on these, it puzzles me that they would even want to change from the standard button closure. The button was fail-proof... the snap is not. Over all they are OK but could be a lot better with just a few changes.

I'm retired and don't do anything to make these shorts come apart at the hem and bottom pockets. These are the shortest inseam that I can find that I like at 8" but colors are few and inseam because of my small waist. Wish they had better material and shorter inseam and more colors to choose from.

Q:

I ordered several pair of these Hiker shorts as I like the design. I like the snap front as my fingers do not work so great anymore. I received 2 pair and saw that the tags were both cut off which let me to think that these are not first quality shorts. One said Wrangler Hiker on the tag and the second said Wrangler Rip Stop Cargo. I also noticed that the elastic in the waistband does not seem to go all the way around. I specifically like this design because of the elastic since my waist varies between a 36 and 37. I'm wondering if these are factory seconds and are being sold as new first quality shorts.

The tags should not have been cut off because we do not sell any secondary products. The elastic waistband only goes around the back of the shorts it does not go all the way around. Please contact us at 888-784-8571 so that we can further help you with this situation.

Unfortunately, we do not make special orders but we can give this suggestion to our product development team. Thank you.

Q:

Same question as others. Why did Wrangler do away with the Button Closure ? The Snap "does not stay snapped" anytime you bend over. Bought 2 pair because my older Wranglers were just that; Older. Took both back because of snap. Will not purchase again as long as they have the Snap closure.

High performance, high quality. These shorts are durable,
lightweight and high-performance. Engineered with four-way flex for unbeatable comfort and movability, they're also water repellant for superior outdoor protection. Zippered pockets keep your valuables safe.

Your classic go-to for warmer weather. This five-pocket
Relaxed Fit Short sits at the natural waist and hits at the knee. Stock up for the season and you'll enjoy the warmer days in comfort. It's made of 100% cotton and ...
